DHS Kirstjen Nielsen speech at Sheriff's Association

(forgive name misspels)

Well, Good Morning! Thank you ALWAYS, uh, to our good friend and advocate, Congressman Scalise. We are so thankful for his leadership, uh, and for his continued support - not only of all of you - but of the Department of Homeland Security.

It's such an honor to join you here today. I'm also happy to be joined by some of my DHS leadership team. I believe we have Matt Albins, Director of ERO, uh, Border Secretary Chief Karish and Flexy (?) Deputy Director Fallens in the audience, and I'll talk a bit more about our leaders who are here from our public and engagement office in a bit.

I'd like to thank Sheriff Evanson for his leadership of the Association this past year, and also to congratulate Sheriff Laten on his new position as incoming President. I had the honor of meeting -uh - Sheriff Laten as well as Sheriff Dannels and others last month on a trip to Arizona where I heard directly from you - from the Sheriffs - and from other law enforcement on the challenges of working along the border.

On behalf of DHS, I look forward to our continued partnership with the NSA, our nation's

Sheriffs, and your Executive Director, Jonathan Thompson (?). Jonathan is a good friend to the

Department - he's no stranger to us - he is a great advocate for YOU and a great partner to the

Department of Homeland Security. Thank you for inviting me to speak here today.

So, as Sheriffs, you – I'm going to tell you something you already know – you are a vital part

of our homeland security team. You TRULY ARE ON the front lines, and so it's a privilege to

be here today to have an opportunity to THANK you for the commendable often dangerous job

you do every day.

Sadly, as was just mentioned earlier, we were reminded of that danger with the loss of two

members of the Sheriff family last week. Deputy Sheriff Teresa King and Deputy Sheriff Patrick

Roher as you know, were killed in the line of duty. And I join all of you in mourning the loss of

these dedicated officers. I also want you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with the law

enforcement community ALWAYS. I am ALWAYS praying for the job that you do.

Law enforcement is a calling - for a select few who are tireless, faithful, and dogged in executing

their duty to protect their communities from danger and in honoring their oaths to uphold the

law. On behalf of the men and women of DHS THANK YOU for your dedication and your

sacrifice. Please know that DHS is your partner and will be by your side as we protect our

borders, enforce our immigration laws, and defend our communities.

As many of you know, the DHS is the largest law enforcement agency in the country. I am

proud to support all law enforcement, your passion, your mission, your commitment to FIGHT

for what you need to do to protect your communities. I will always support you, you have an

advocate in me, and just as I do for the men and women of DHS, I will carry the banner to get

you the authorities, tools, and resources that you need to do the job that the American people

ask.

So, on that point - to a select few in the media, Congress, and the advocacy community - I'd like

to start with a message for you - "this Department will no longer stand by and watch you attack

law enforcement for enforcing the laws passed by Congress. We will not apologize for the job

WE do or for the job law enforcement does - for doing the job that the America people expect us

to do."

Unfortunately, for political gain, as we have seen, some politicians are trying to pit State and Local law enforcement officials against Federal officials. This "blue on blue" approach is a disservice to the public and every law enforcement official around the country and it MUST STOP.

SEPTEMBER 1-8, 2014 ISSUE

Immigrants in Detention Each Day Simply to Meet a Quota

It’s time for Congress to eliminate the immigrant detention mandate.

By Robert M. Morgenthau

Robert M. Morgenthau is the former district attorney of New York County. He is of counsel to

Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Hatz.

On any given day, Immigration and Customs Enforcement keeps at least 34,000 immigrants

locked up while they wait for their cases to be heard in immigration court. Many of these

detainees are incarcerated not because they are dangerous or likely to skip their court dates, but

because ICE must meet an arbitrary quota set by Congress. This quota, which is often referred

to as the “detention-bed mandate,” is a disgrace and should be eliminated.

The quota is written into the federal law that appropriates funding for ICE. Congress requires

the agency to “maintain a level of not less than 34,000 detention beds” at any given time. The

quota was first enacted in 2007, and it appears yet again in the 2015 appropriations bill

currently pending in the House of Representatives.

The quota is unprecedented. No other federal or state agency is required by law to detain a

specific number of people without any regard to whether the quota makes sense from a law-

enforcement perspective. Indeed, the quota is so excessive that it has been criticized by the very

immigration authorities charged with enforcing it. At a congressional hearing in April 2013,

then–Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano argued that ICE should be detaining

people “according to public-safety threats, level of offense…ot an arbitrary bed number.”

For the 2015 fiscal year, the Department of Homeland Security has asked Congress to lower the

quota to 30,539 beds. But even that number is too high: immigration detainees have not been

convicted of any crime, and many are eventually released and allowed to stay in this country.

They should not be languishing for months—sometimes even years—in detention facilities.

Detainees who are considered a flight risk can be outfitted instead with electronic ankle

bracelets, which are a cheaper and more humane means of ensuring that they will show up for

their hearings. Incarceration should be reserved for threats to public safety or national security,

as determined by the DHS. Congress should not be setting a quota at all.

The persistence of this detainee quota is less surprising in light of the fact that for-profit private

prisons hold more than half of all immigration detainees. When I was the district attorney of

Manhattan, my goal was to lower our case load by reducing crime. But private-prison

companies have no incentive to keep immigrants out of detention, because these companies get

paid per bed. Even a small reduction in the quota would be a hit to their bottom line. That is

why they have poured money into campaign contributions and lobbying efforts. One private-

prison company, for instance, spent more than $13 million between 2005 and 2013 on lobbying.
